[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Issue Comment Edited: (ISPN-1385) JDK7 CI job bringing CI to a halt

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-1385?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Galder Zamarreño edited comment on ISPN-1385 at 9/14/11 4:25 AM: ----------------------------------------------------------------- The difference between JDK6 and JDK7 could be in the reflection provider used: - With JDK6, com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.Sun14ReflectionProvider is used. - With JDK7, com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.PureJavaReflectionProvider is used. With JDK6 it all works fine, but the one chosen for JDK7 causes issues. And you know the reason for it? The following method returns false: {code} private boolean canUseSun14ReflectionProvider() { return (isSun() || isApple() || isHPUX() || isIBM() || isBlackdown() || isBEAWithUnsafeSupport() || isHitachi() || isSAP() || isDiablo()) && is14() && loadClass("sun.misc.Unsafe") != null; } {code} And that's cause the vendor is no longer any of those but instead "Oracle Corporation" ;) I bet we're gonna see a lot of code breaking due to assumptions like this with JDK7. was (Author: galder.zamarreno): The difference between JDK6 and JDK7 could be in the reflection provider used: - With JDK6, com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.Sun14ReflectionProvider is used. - With JDK7, com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection.PureJavaReflectionProvider is used.
